I get up early in the morning so I can hate bloggers for longer

Bloggers will eventually be known, in the history books, as the people responsible for completely ruining the internet. It isn’t going to be the spammers, it isn’t going to be the corporations, it’s going to be John Smith, Jon Doe and Plain Jane and their insights such as “50 ways to improve the shape of your left elbow in under 3 seconds”.

Right now bloggers are talking about “Web 3.0″. Why? Because its just about legitimate – we’re in web 2.0 now with code and standards and so logically, the next step will be web 3.0. But nobody really knows what web 3.0 will be about. Except bloggers, of course. They can predict the future. Here are some of the things that “professional bloggers” have predicted will come with web 3.0:

- We’ll all use a mouse with no buttons, because web 3.0 is all about not clicking on things.

- We’ll all have a personal loan (god damnit I hate personal loan blogs!!)

- We’ll all be doing this via our mobile phones

- We’ll all be expert movie makers and editors and nobody will type anything

- We’ll all be downloading data at speeds that beat a computer writing to a CD, and the data will be coming in through the sewer system (no, really, they are already putting cables in the toilets)

- We’ll all know what “semantic” means

- There wont be any more advertising. (I WISH!)

Well I think we all know where web 3.0 can hide itself, but the desperate thing about this situation is that it’s never going to end. Even if some “authority” does claim that “we’re now living in the time of web 3.0″ some smart arse blogger, probably from America, probably overweight, is going to claim he knows exactly what Web 4.0 has in store and will write a goddamn top ten list since in web 3.0 we all stopped being able to understand anything longer than ten sentences and separated by numbers. Again, thanks to bloggers.
